There are probably massive showrooms in Central London, but it would be nice to have a decent showroom locally.

Yes, we can buy equipment online, and this is great for getting a good financial deal, but there is no substitute for trying out the instrument first. In fact, I won’t buy any keyboard that I haven’t touched.

So come on retailers – let’s have some genuine competition here. A lot of people will still buy Yamaha because they are good, but there are plenty of alternatives and we keyboard players want to try them out!
